[Opinions] Re: Janvier
Javier I like. Janvier not so much. (prn'd totally differently, I know) With Americans often being more familiar with Span. than Fr., I suspect Javier would also have a better chance of being prn'd correctly.
Avril should be left on a girl... lumping Avril on a boy is pretty much inviting hassles of people seeing the name and assuming girl and constantly having to explain to people why he has a girls' name.Plus too many month names in the same fam can look kinda tacky. Some month names on their own even look tacky on a person imo. May is fine on a girl and despite not liking them, Augustus and Julius or Julian and June can also be acceptable names on people. A little girl named Avril or April would be nice... then maybe something you can associate w/ a month on a boy w/out being outright obvious about it. The other month names just seem a little strange on people. Then again, I also find En. days of the week as tacky names for people.

But would Avril on a boy be any worse than Whitney on a boy, or Addison? I would GLADLY use Whitney for a son.Oh and just to clarify I wouldn't use these names together. They just made sense to post about together, that's all

Thing is that Whitney was originally a boys' name. I'm not fond of Addison on either gender... However, Avril is very fem.
